chicagoblue Posted August 24, 2022 Report Share Posted August 24, 2022 I've liked the YouTube clips of him, but never seen a full game. As others have said, it's a bit odd that no one else seems in for him at the price point (~10m). Seems to be a decent age, last year of his contract, we need squad strikers. Why not take a punt? His recent record in the Championship is very good, so even if he can't make the step up we should be able to sell him back down in 6 or 12 months.

plaidharper Posted August 24, 2022 Report Share Posted August 24, 2022 Certainly worth a gamble if Blackburn is willing to let him go. Could maybe loan them Cannon to sweeten the deal? StevO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gwlad Posted August 25, 2022 Report Share Posted August 25, 2022 He's a striker. We don't have a fit one of those at the minute. He's only got to come M65, M6, M58 job done. And he has a cool name. London Blue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chicagoblue Posted August 26, 2022 Report Share Posted August 26, 2022 Been reading rovers forums. Overall id say They are gutted to be losing him. Agree that's is very strange that wet don't hear about others being in for him. Ie I'd rather we guarantee Championship survival and have an outside chance of promotion - which will both happen with Diaz at our disposal - than be destined for a season of struggle and potentially relegation without him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forest get a percentage of whatever fee paid so Blackburn will have to feel it’s worth it. If they’re only getting a few million after the sell-on they may feel they’re better off seeing where they stand in January which isn’t too many games away with the World Cup when it is!

chicagoblue Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 Sky saying we bid but didn't meet the Venkys quoted price. Will be very curious to hear the numbers and the gap. If we've opted to stick with what we have over a couple million I'll be unimpressed. Of course if we pull something else off then fair play. Have to think though that we wouldn't have bid for Diaz if we had an expectation on Broja Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to think though that we wouldn't have bid for Diaz if we had an expectation on Broja There has been talk Blackburn want £20m, I think that’s a bit much for a lad who hasn’t played in the top flight and only has a year left on his contract. I rate him, maybe £10m would be a good price, £15m maximum, but £20m is pushing it and they can afford to hold out. Sibdane 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
